Congratulations to all the graduating students from all schools. Your formal schooling is now over and the next chapter of your life will now begin. We all wish you the very best and never forget all the friends you have made over the years. They will take you forward in the years to come.

Demountable classrooms are typically used where student rates are uncertain. However, the Northern Gold Coast's continued population growth means we need permanent school buildings - not temporary fixes. It is time this failing Labor government commits to providing permanent solutions to the growing Northern Gold Coast area. Thanks to Paul Weston and the GC Bulletin for highlighting this issue.

A huge congratulations to all the new officers holders of the 2017 Beenleigh Yatala Junior Chamber of Commerce . It is always a pleasure to attend events like this as it shows how many talented kids we have in our local community with such incredible futures ahead of them.

Upper Coomera State College students participated in today's Walk For Daniel. Their behaviour was excellent and they all listened intently to our local Police Officer. Safety of our children will always be top priority. Plus a huge thanks to Upper Coomera Neighbourhood watch for hosting this event at the community centre.

Congratulations to all the successful community grants! $35,000 to upgrade tuck shop facilities at Cedar Creek State School P&C, $16,988.52 to upgrade hall at QCWA Coomera, $6,244.50 to purchase indoor bowls equipment for Studio Village Community Centre, $9,079.19 to purchase IT equipment for Oxenford & Coomera Community Youth Centre to name a few.
